I'll check out the anime from time to time, but I tend to go with the manga as:
1. It doesn't feel stretched out as a good chunk of anime episodes are anime exclusives.
2. The Manga version of The Shinkansen Bomb Case and The Strange Person Hunt Murder Case actually incorporate The Organization. Plus the anime's modification of those two stories result in a continuity glitch in Game Company Murder Case.
Who has read or is reading the manga?

I read at least the first 10 volumes of the manga since my best friend collects them. I gotta say, reading the manga is just as frustrating as watching the anime series if you're only relying on the licensed mangas and DVDs in English--I think only 24 or so volumes of the manga have been released by Viz in comparison to around 60 volumes of the Japanese tankoubons released, which is why my best friend switched to ordering Japanese tankoubons after finishing her Japanese courses.
Anyway, because I watched the series before I read the mangas, I favor the anime a little more than the manga. It feels weird to see Ran sporting a somewhat different hairstyle in the first few volumes (as far as I can remember), and Kogoro looks a bit different. The quality of the storytelling and the cases themselves, however, are still pure gem, obviously, and although you can't actually see Conan in action, the manga is still very engaging--and that's what's important, really. XD
if u don't mind watching the manga series online. u can try mangafox.com. it has latest updated series.

i love both but it is abit tiring watching the anime. since i dont know japanese and have to relied on the subtitles all the time. i prefer manga as it has already been translated. i really wanted to thank those translator. it is nice of them to transalate the mangas and share it to us.

I have read the mangas up to vol 732 and is waiting for 733 to go out and I have also watched the whole season one of the anime. I prefer the mangas as they are usually more complex and is more detailed too. The anime is quite ok too but I still prefer the mangas. This may be because I read mangas first.

I prefer both the manga and anime, even though I haven't read the manga yet. I can say that coz I'm a fan of manga and for me they're complements.
Never trust to general impressions, but concentrate yourself upon details.

Do you need a reason?...Do you need a reason to save someone's life?...people kill each other and i don't understand why, but for saving a life, is a logical reason necessary?.

You are right. Most people cannot stop reading these. Mt friends at school force me to bring the next volumes of dc since I have the complete set. But it is also my fault that they do this as I was the one who started reading dc in my class...lol...it's addictive right? once u start u cant stop.....
